PAGE FOUR fHE MICHIGAN DAILY TUESDAY, AUGUST 30, 1966 utors Educate, Recreate ii; ':.- * By BETSY TURNER Kids and University students can be seen reading, writing, working on the child's academic problems, visiting museums, draw- ing, laughing and talking-toge- ther. These are just a few of the diversified activities of tutors and tutees participating in the Tuitor- ial and Cultural Relations Project. Tutoring is done on a one tutor to one tutor basis. Usually, the tutor and child meet once a week for about three hours. At the be- ginning of each semester, new tutors are given an orientation to the program. During these per- iods, teaching techniques, tutoring methods ,and information about places of interest are discussed. Graduate students from the psy- chology department and related social science fields have worked with the program as advisors. All tutoring and advising is done on a voluntary basis. Last year, 250 University stu- dents tutored in Ann Arbor. The project has the use of 13 churches and Jones School, a local activi- ties center. Because tutoring is done on an individual basis, each tutor and child arrange the meet- sides academic tutoring, is bring- ing time which is most conven- ing the children into Ann Arbor lent for them. where they could visit museums, Tutors also worked in two out- stores, libraries and other places lying areas last semester, Willow of interest.

A bet- ter understanding of other coun- tries and other peoples will give the children a broader outlook and a greater appreciation of people who have different cus- toms and way of living. This is a very real part of our program since the lack of understanding of people who are different is the root of many of the problems of cultural separation in this country today," commented Dick Sleet, director of the Tutorial project. Funds for the project come from several sources. Last year, two stu- dent organizations, the Student Government Council and Phi Sigma Sigma donated money. The tutors held a bucket drive in the winter and a jazz concert in the summer. The project also receives a research grant in connection with the psychology department. This is used to meet the costs of staff salary and equipment. Some group activities are also arranged especially in Willow Run and Sumpter where all the stu- dents are tutoring at the same time. Recreation is one of the main concentrations as far as group activities are concerned. "Playing with the kids and getting to know them at the same time is a good way to develop a relation- ship conducive to learning. If the child knows you, respects you and considers you a friend, he will also want to learn from you and with you," Sleet comnented further. Other group activities being con- sidered are dramatics programs, talent and art shows. Any University students who are interested in tutoring should con- tact the Tutorial office, 2547 in the Student Activities Building. -- - $4 EDUCATION IS MADE ATTRACTIVE to Willow Run Village as tutors speak, play and learn with its junior members.
